8 Common Mistakes We Make When We Discipline Our Kids — Dr. Josh + Christi LIVE Video

This topic is not meant to be shameful for parents. We made 4 of these mistakes the day we shot the video. Instead, we talk about the most freeing and emotionally safe ways to approach discipline.

Here are the highlights (with time stamps) to help you click to the topic most relevant for you:
1:30 — We love this community and the way you support one another! Feel free to comment with your most recent #parentingwin
2:55 — 1. Not following through; 2. Undermining your spouse; 3. Having too many rules
4:45 — Emotional safety: It is the posture from which we parent, not the techniques that matters most
5:10 — Disciplining not for disobedience, but for behavior we find annoying
6:55 — Be clear, be consistent, follow through
9:53 — Parenting today is exhausting and shaming. We need to come together as parents and support one another.
11:30 — Being “emotionally safe” with our kids just 2 out of 5 times gets the outcomes we’re looking for in our kids.
12:00 — Seeking the forgiveness of our kids is the “ultimate” of relationships. When we mess up, because we will, seek your kids’ forgiveness.
